Amnesty International Demand Dignity Campaigner Jobs in Africa and London
Demand Dignity Campaigner
Various locations across Africa, or London
Salary: TBC for Africa Posting, £32,256 for London Posting
Fixed-Term Contract Ending 31st March 2012
Demand Dignity is Amnesty International's flagship campaign, calling for an end to the human rights violations that drive and deepen poverty.
Join us and help deliver a major part of the campaign in Africa, fighting for the rights of people living in slums from Lagos to Nairobi.
Every year hundreds of thousands of people living in slums across Africa are forcibly, often violently, evicted from their homes.
Their rights are violated, they lose not only their homes and possessions, but also access to work and basic services, driving them deeper into poverty. You'll deliver campaign plans focused on ending these forced evictions.
To do that well, you'll need to coordinate with our offices across the world, bringing them together to raise awareness and integrate campaigning and policy. You'll provide support to teams in eight African countries, including advocacy, campaigning, developing best practice standards and work closely with staff to increase our impact.
An experienced campaigner, you'll have knowledge of the human rights issues surrounding slums and development in Africa and be confident implementing campaigns on national, regional and international levels.
So you'll have a strong understanding of campaign methodologies and development tools and have the organisational skill to pull together geographically remote colleagues and partners. Ideally, you'll have a working knowledge of Kiswahili or French.
But it's more important that you have top-notch communication skills in English and are able to build strong relationships both throughout Amnesty and externally.
For more information and to apply, please visit www.amnesty.org/jobs
Closing Date: 9th December 2010
First round interviews are expected to be held on or around 17th December.
